Somerset Berkley (3-4-5, 1-2-2 EAC) had tied Coyle-Cassidy 1-1 last month in Taunton on a late goal.

“The problem we’ve had all season is being consistent on offense,” SB coach Julie Wells said. “It’s not for a lack of effort, that’s for sure. We’ve just go to jell at the right time on offense.”

Coyle-Cassidy coach Leslie “Scottie” Hutchison said that for the second half the Warriors tweaked the defense to better suit the small field and protect the 1-0 lead.

“We changed our formation to four backs and a hole in the middle, which became a 4-1-4-1,” he said. “It just strengthens the back line up. After halftime it was important to score the next goal. I didn’t think they (SB) would score a couple of goals.”

The first half left little to choose between the clubs.

Somerset Berkley buzzed around the attacking third of the field early. Senior Danielle Silva’s head ball off a senior captain Kara Botelho corner kick went just wide of the left post.

A few minutes SB senior Alaisha Teixeira turned and fired from 22 yards out but the shot missed high.

The closest call before the first goal belonged to Coyle-Cassidy, but SB defender Corrin Courville mad a nifty save at the goal line, somehow kicking the ball back over the crossbar.

Sefrino scored when she ran down a long Laura Johnson lead from the left wing, moved in alone on keeper Haley Monaghan (7 saves), and stuck the ball into the right corner with a minute to go before halftime.

Coyle-Cassidy ran a tight defensive ship right from the start of the second half. Through the first 22 minutes of the second half, the Warriors owned a 5-1 edge in both shots and corner kicks.

Their final second-half edge was 7-3 in shots and 7-1 in corner kicks.

Schultz wound up with an open net at 74:43 when a spinning ball bounced away from Monaghan in the box and get knocked back across the goal mouth.

The closest SB got to a second-half scoring bid came in the last minute when Teixeira floated a 25-yarder over both winning keeper Lauren DeSousa (5 saves) and the crossbar.
